How about something like: Booting FreeBSD: dumpon initrandom fsck root hostid mountcritlocal var cleanvar random adjkerntz hostname kldxref swap sysctl netif (lo0 fxp0) pflog pf routing devd nsswitch devfs syslogd ldconfig named auditd [FAILED] tmp cleartmp dmesg virecover local motd ntpd powerd syscons sshd sendmail cron securelevel power_profile inetd PS: Robert, nothing against auditd ;) -- Joao Barros
